Someone took down all of the exo-prisoner websites (follow the links): http://www.ecoprisoners.org/prisoners.htm
And the Earth First Journal website too: https://earthfirstjournal.news/
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
Earth Liberation Front, Animal Liberation Front, and similar organizations conduct sabotage against non-living, destructive machines and systems that are literally killing the planet. They are the resistance, the Rebel Alliance. They are The Good Guys, and the Empire we have all been born, raised, and indoctrinated into is the The Bad Guys. Be an honorable traitor.
We are living in the sixth mass extinction on this planet. This one is cause solely by human activity in a very short period of time. The immediate causes can be identified as transnational corporations, capitalism, authoritarianism, and industrial civilization. The roots go all the way back to the dawn of systems of domination and control, of involuntary hierarchy itself: religion, kings, patriarchy, racism, kings, and wars. The mere belief that humans are separated from the web of life, and that it is ours to use and consume however we desire, is the basis for our self-destruction.
Thus ELF, ALF, and others are like white blood cells defending the body, the biosphere, in the death throws of a cancerous civilization eating itself alive.
You do not have to join ELF, ALF, or similar. But do not resist them. Do not help the Empire. Resist the Empire's rape and killing of our planet. Resist the Empire's genocides and ecocide.
The religious fundamentalists want us to believe it is wrong to love this world, and to deny themselves now for a paradise later. That only allows them to justify to themselves ever increasing suffering here. They are morally wrong and insane.
The capitalists want us to believe we can have infinite growth in a finite system. We just have to keep expanding what the system is with more imaginary bubbles while the wealth disparity increases. Again, wrong morally wrong and insane.
Very few can both see the whole picture, or most of it, clearly, and do something good about it. ELF, ALF, and similar organizations are.
Trump capitalized on the angst and fear people have and exploited them to amplify his power. He is corrupt and they were duped. Many were in on the conspiracy. The Republican Party is corrupt, and must end. The same is true for RSS and BJP of India, and similar far-right organizations around the world. See:

I've shared this and similar many before...
Consciousness is like a star or a sea urchin. Every ideology is like a spine.
One good model relies on 8 basic spines, and branches out from there. Consider white light refracted into the 7 colors, plus black. Each color is interdependent upon each other, creating a mutual aid and preventing any one spine from running away or getting too strong relative to the others or the center mass. All colors, every spike of the sea urchin, every ray of star, every branch of the consciousness, must strike out and pull back, sing and dance, not in unison, but in harmony with each other, the center, and the whole.

- RED: Marxism (socialism, communism, democratic confederalism, syndicalism, etc)
- ORANGE: Activism (environmental justice, social justice, and economic justice)
- YELLOW: Sensuality (food, fitness, travel, adventure, sex positivity, etc)
- GREEN: Global Greens, environmentalism, grassroots democratic politics, etc
- BLUE: Science (natural sciences, social sciences, appropriate technology, and secular humanism)
- INDIGO: Mysticism (non-religious search for personal meaning beyond observed empiricism)
- PURPLE: Intersectionality (theory of power, difference, inequality, fairness, ethics, and morality)
- BLACK: Anarchism (left-libertarianism)
A note regarding Science (BLUE), Mysticism (INDIGO), and faith (intentionally omitted above). aith and science are fundamentally opposed. However, I think mysticism and science are compatible because mysticism and faith are different.
Faith believes despite a lack of or despite of evidence to the contrary, ie science. Mysticism, as I define it, is the consciousness reaching out into the mystery of the unknown and ultimately unknowable. This terrain is beyond the reach of both science and religion, for science tests observable phenomena and religion teaches from authority. Both mysticism and science are subordinate to new data and new experiences, while faith and religion are not.
It's not quite this simple, but it's like, science is deductive reasoning, mysticism is inductive reasoning, and faith is the lack of reasoning altogether.
What we have seen recently worldwide represents a corruption of the spiritual color spectrum:
- RED: Fascism, USA Republican Party, and Red Scare
- ORANGE: Trumpism, Proud Boys, and Oath Keepers, etc
- YELLOW: Toxic masculinity, incels, sexploitation, etc
- GREEN: Corporate greenwashing and eco-fascism
- BLUE: Anti-intellectualism, misinformation, and disinformation (Jordan Pererson, Ben Shapiro, Fox News, Breitbart, Drudge Report, OAN, etc)
- INDIGO: Religious fundamentalism and conspiracy theories (QAnon, Christian Nationalism, other religious nationalism and theocracies, Islamophobia, Zionism, anti-Semitism, female genital mutilation and male circumcision, forced religious conversion and evangelicalism, gay conversion therapy, etc)
- PURPLE: Alt-Right (fascism, white supremacy, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, ableism, etc)
- BLACK: Right-Libertarian (Ayn Rand, Rand Paul, Ron Paul, Joe Rogan, PragerU, Koch Brothers, corporatism, cronysim, technocracy)
